Yours Truly Restaurants

Good food. However they need to get rid of the tablets they use to take orders. This isn’t a large restaurant with 100 tables. I ordered the chili with cheese and onions and a Cobb salad. The chili was ok. No heat to it. Just plain old chili. The Cobb salad had too much blue cheese in it. Over all it wasn’t a bad meal, but the tablets need to go.

Whenever I visit my cousins, they always bring me here. They’re regulars and get greeted by name. The servers all know them and I think that’s why my cousins think it’s the best place ever.
My opinion: meh. I’ve been in for breakfast, brunch, and lunch. Nothing has ever been spectacular… I’d say it’s better than Bob Evans, but not impressive in any real way. (Now that I’m thinking back on it, the iced tea IS above average. But that’s probably the best thing I have to say about it.)
YT makes this huge deal out of their potatoes… I think they call them cottage potatoes… Whatever the name, they’re flat french fries. They arrive in huge bags, frozen. Then they’re dumped in the deep fryer. WHY DO PEOPLE GET EXCITED ABOUT THEM???
I’ll get dragged in next time I’m in town. It won’t be kicking and screaming, but I will definitely not suggest it on my own.

We were regulars here for years. But the place is going down hill fast!!! Last time we were served raw eggs and today there was a Beatle in my omelette!!! So gross!!!

Slow service, the food wasn’t very good. I think it’s a place that’s good for breakfast, but lunch or dinner… not so much. Wicked fast wifi though!

This place is best for breakfast! Outdoor seating, a bar you can sit at. A family place.

Got food poisoning from a turkey reuben there this weekend. Spent 24 hours sicker than a dog.
While the service was good, and everyone else had decent food, this experience has soured me against Yours Truly.

We were starving after church and stopped here for brunch. Got a seat right away at the counter. Ordered right away and were served drinks. Then we waited. And we waited. And we waited. I’m willing to bet the farm that my sandwich sat under the lights for nearly a half hour while hubby’s pancakes were made, put up, sent back to reheat, put up, sent back. You get the idea. A half hour! We left. Won’t be back. Managers: you need to hire AND train more people to handle the Sunday after church rush. Simple as that.

We went there 12:30 on a Sunday morning. We expected it to be busy and, of course, there was a wait. But two seats were open at the counter, so we sat right down. The server gave us menus and got our drink order right away, and within 5 mins. had our order, a chicken salad sandwich and an order of pancakes.
As crazy as it was there, the kitchen was working hard (visible from our stools) and had both dishes up on the pass-​through within a few minutes.
Unfortunately, the server was covering the entire counter, a six top, and tables outside in the patio, besides making coffee and other tasks behind the counter.
I watched the butter melt away in my hot cakes for 10 mins, and by the time the server got to them, she simply called for a cook, and I watched them get thrown back on the griddle.
By the time the server got back to them again — same results. 10 more minutes elapsed, second blob of butter gone, cold cakes. She sent them back again and scurried off. Meanwhile, a chicken salad sandwich is still doing what chick salad and bread do after being together for a half hour.
When my pancakes went through the process a third time, we got up and left.
No, I didn’t pay for my cup of coffee. I’ll pay for it next time we go back, which is never.

The atmosphere was awesome, but the food was mediocre. I can tell that nothing was fresh, and the cooks shouldn’t be cooking because my eggs Benedict wasn’t a true eggs benny, it had fried eggs instead of poached. If i wanted fried eggs i would have ordered that. The hollandaise sauce was disgusting.

Just wanted to update and re-​review. We went at lunch time and ordered breakfast. My husband’s omelet was nice and hot, while mine had obviously sat so that the eggs could get that gross congealed look about them. On the bright side, it was not quite as greasy as when we had been there the last time.
Management: Get the wait staff some trays to carry out the dishes of food. We are not impessed that you make them line up plates on their arms, against their shirts, against other plates. Gross.

I usually stop here at least once every time I come to town for business. Seems to be popular place with the locals — always a good sign. The menu has a lot of offering and breakfast is available anytime. I usually go with the turkey Ruben. I also recommend the the onion rings over the fries.
They seemed to be a little under staffed on the floor. Our waitress was working the counter and tables so service wasn’t top notch today.

Enjoyable atmosphere, server’s very attentive coffee always full and good. Food good, portions are a little lite for the price. Choice between toast and hash browns both would be much better.

Food was extremely overpriced with very small portions. 2 small sandwiches totaled over 20 $. Mine was a piece of chicken, flat top cooked, with franks red hot splashed on top and a dusting of blu cheese. On top of that my bottom bun was soggy, and the sandwich wasn’t even served with fries. For the same price we will go to Rocknes for much bigger portions and better food.

I’ve been going out to breakfast about once a week lately. It’s become my new favorite thing to do. I usually go to diners because they’re great food for cheap. Yours Truly is a bit fancier than the diner and also a bit more expensive, but totally worth it. I had «The Sunrise» which comes with two eggs, meat, hashbrowns, toast and choice of drink (tea, milk, coffee, soft drink). It’s a great bang-​for-​your-​buck. I had the turkey sausage links which your average diner doesn’t offer. The rye toast was great… they also offer ciabbatta, which is so good toasted! They offer options for just about anything you could be craving for breakfast. They also have the best fresh squeezed orange juice – beware that it is very pulpy which I love, but not all do.

Over the years we’ve patronized several of this mini-chain’s stores, usually for luncheon, as none are exactly around the corner.
On an earlier stop here for lunch one day, the lady found them lacking so we hadn’t returned until the other couple we met for a ride suggested breakfasting here pre-​ride.
So we did.
The other gentleman’s lady and I both got the Kiilit Skilliet which is every breakfast food know to man tossed together and finished in a skillet, as has become the breakfast fashion during the past decade or so.
We both enjoyed it immensely.
Her comment, with which I partially agree was that getting it cheeseless might be a consideration as it greased it up a bit.
My lady got a yogurt parfait maybe a muffin as well, I dunno.
To me sweet and breakfast, outside of the occasional smear of jam are mutually exclusive, so I find my ears go adrift once the yogurt word escapes the lady’s lips.
She however enjoyed it immensely so for all you other sweeties out there, there you go!
The other gentleman got a waffle, eggs, sausage and wheat toast and his knife and fork flew with the precision and furor of a ninja in battle! So methinks he liked it! He commented his waffle was perfectly done with a crisp exterior and flaky fluffy interior.
He also commented, as did his lady, on the breads that were served with the meals and I would agree they were good, and if not premises– made, at least made to order for the premise.
This mini-​chain has always struck me as a breakfast place that also adequately does lunch and dinner to make ends meet, kinda Cracker Barrel/​BobEvansy in ilk, so for those who have expressed disgruntlement at «happy hour» and dinner poriton issues, it might just be a case of the old «silk-​purse from a sow’s ear» deal when one dines here for other than breakfast .
Two of our party got hot tea and the table was presented with a nice tea chest with a variety of selections.
He, however left the table for a moment before it’s arrival and hence not having an opportunity of making a selection and two waitresses separately came a grabbin’ it back before he was able to make a selection, the latter commenting that someone else was waiting for it.
What?
A dining room accomodatiing at least 65 and one tea chest?
Mr. Truly, pul a couple of twenties out of your pocket and spring for another box, knowahadImean?

We frequent Yours Truly fairly often and we have noticed the prices going up and the portions getting smaller. Last night I had their Friday Nigh fish fry and was serve 2 small pieces about half of what you used to get.
I committed to the server about the small portion and she offer to get me another piece of fish which was nice and I accepted her offer.
Other than this everything else was very good and enjoyable.

A short drive from the Medina Hampton Inn. Spacious interior with a good number of booths. Casual but nicer than nearby Denny’s and Bob Evans. Wednesday night is kid’s night, so if you are blessedly child-​free steer clear on Wednesdays.
I chose the Chicken Walnut Salad Platter for $ 6.50. A scoop of tasty chicken salad (no extra seasonings required), served with a huge pile of fresh fruit (pineapple, honeydew, strawberries, blueberries and apples). Yours Truly delicious!
The menu is large, with a wide selection of breakfast served anytime, sandwiches, burgers, salads, booze and desserts.

Overall, I was pretty happy with the experience. This was my first visit. In fact, I’d never even heard of the place before we stopped.
The menu is pretty extensive. It’s actually kinda difficult to pick something if you’ve never been there; alotta different items to get lost in. I had to ask what cottage fries were. They end up basically being similar to Bdubs buffalo chips.
Anyways, it’s a bit pricey because if you buy something like a burger, the sides do not come with it. However, their burgers are pretty scrumptious!
The service was alright. They had one server doing a whole bunch of tables, and she was swamped. She did well though considering we had a table of 10 people to go along with her other 5 – 6 other tables.
Also, some miscellaneous information, they have a cool jukebox and a place where kids can sit down and play with a few toys.
It’s definitely worth a stop and dine =)

The best deal going at Yours Truely is their «Happy Hour» menu. Any of their burgers are $ 5.00. The flash fried artichokes are excellent. If I had to suggest one improvement, it would be their coffee. It’s not that bad, but not that great either.
The atmosphere is great at this particular restaurant. It’s well lit and has a very clean appearance. We have dined at the Cuyahoga Falls YT also. More cozy/​smaller, but same great service.

Shirly, first to review? How on EARTH did you manage only three stars? I’ve parsed your review, swept it through the decoder, translated into, then back out of, seventeen languages (Urdu was a bitch) and STILL can’t understand. Tepid rice? That’s the only thing you could find that wasn’t great?
Okay, take a few cleansing breaths. Mmmm. Better. Let’s start over.
I have eaten at three Yours Truly spots, Shaker Square, Hudson, and Medina. The Medina one is SO much better in every respect as to be unrecognizable as associated with this chain. I’m so in love with this place, this morning was our fifty-​sixth breakfast there. I am not making that up. We were a group of five, in the middle of the «last no cooking at home day before Easter» and it was slammed. Still, the service was flawless, the food solid, workmanlike, substantial and predictable. Now I hasten to add that predictable is a GREAT thing at the first blush of dawn. I don’t need, or want, a surprise at that hour: «Chef Antoine has decided to substitute your corned beef hash with a slurry of eel and saffron. Enjoy!»
Take a good, close look around. This enterprise is professional, on every level. Clean. It is so, SO clean. The waitresses are there for the long haul; you won’t find one leaning against the front bar whining, «…but I have a photo shoot tonight, then Biff and I were going to the club…» Nope. Gladys. Mertyl. Cookie. These are hand-​picked Service Professionals.
I just wish there were a way to take Shirley C’s missing stars and add them back in.
